Chapter 250 Office Building
Arriving in the University Town in the morning, Lu Dong walked around the two stores, and then went to the new 8 o'clock online store on the north side of Xuefu Wenyuan, and then walked north to the Innovation Port next to the north side of the Provincial University.
This is a business park covering an area of more than 100 mu, with the provincial university campus on the south, the affiliated school of the provincial university on the west, the Physical Education College across the road to the east, and a residential area to the north.
Innovation Port consists of 10 buildings in total, and the three buildings closest to the roadside have been completed, all of which are commercial office buildings with more than ten floors.
Building No. 1 has been leased by Langchao Group and is undergoing renovation. It will become the headquarters of Langchao Group in University City.
Lu Dong had a vague impression that in another five or six years, Langchao Group would move to University City as a whole, and this place would also become the headquarters of the entire Langchao Group.
When he came to Innovation Harbor, Lu Dong stood in front of Building No. 1 and looked at it for a while. The huge blue three-dimensional characters "Lang Chao" had been erected in front of the building.
For now, this is the most powerful high-tech industry company in the university town.
Today's Langchao Group is different from the future. The branded computer business is in full swing. In the factory area on the west side of the provincial university, a computer assembly line is being launched.
Most of the branded computers used by many units or individuals in Taidong are Langchao brand.
However, the latter Langchao transformed into a software-based company.
Langchao will soon have a large number of people coming over, and these are also potential consumers of Lu's Catering.
Lu Dong went to Building No. 2. Looking forward from the middle of the two buildings, the other buildings were under intensive construction.
I heard Li Wenyue mentioned before that in the future, it will be an emerging industrial park mainly based on computers, software engineering and automation.
Close to Building No. 2, the largest store on the first floor, there is already a store with a signboard - Communication Computer Office Equipment Monopoly!
Through the double-opening glass doors, you can see computers, printers and various electronic equipment inside.
Someone in the door seemed to see Lu Dong, and when he opened the door, a woman with big arms, round waist and big hands and feet came out and said hello, "Lv Dong, do you want to buy equipment?"
Lu Dong saw Du Juan, who was as strong as Lao Du, and said with a smile, "Good morning, Sister Du, did you just come here?"
Du Juan smiled boldly: "I came here in the morning, how is the business of the Internet cafe you are partnering with?"
"It's okay." Lu Dong said simply: "The main reason is that there are no competitors, and it is basically full all day long."
Du Juan said again: "Is there going to be a shop in the future?"
Lu Dong admitted: "The market in the university town is very large. New stores will be opened in the school districts in the south and east, as well as in the factory district in the west. You have to give me the lowest price."
This is a veritable big customer, and Du Juan seemed quite generous: "I promise, you will not get a lower price than mine when you travel all over Taidong."
She started from the perspective of her own interests: "Lv Dong, I have seen that based on the growth rate of students in the university city and the situation of enterprises entering the city, opening ten more stores in the next two years will not be saturated."
Lu Dong told the truth: "I just invest in Internet cafes to make quick money. I'm just a small shareholder, and my main business is catering."
Du Juan was not surprised to hear Du Xiaobing mention these things, and said: "Your store's cash register, central air-conditioning and kitchen utensils business, you can't give it to others. You know the price here, so don't worry."
Lu Dong did a market survey and said, "Sister Du, I also hope that we can continue to cooperate for a long time."
Through the cooperation with four stores and two Internet cafes, Lu Dong is more assured that Du Juan is more reliable than other companies on the market.
Lu Dong's cell phone rang, and after connecting it, he said a few words, said goodbye to Du Juan, and waited for a while at the gate of the building. Officer Zhao came over on his motorcycle.
"Something happened temporarily, so I'm late." Officer Zhao put the motorcycle away.
Lu Dong said, "Brother Zhao, you two don't have to be polite."
Director Zhao led the way, entered the gate of Building No. 2, and said, "The person in charge here is a section chief of the logistics of the Provincial University. During the negotiation between our leader and the Provincial University, he was one of the main reception staff. I am quite familiar with him. , It’s no problem to choose in advance and rent in advance.”
Lu Dong smiled and said, "I originally planned to wait, but there are a lot of things I can't wait to open a store here. I urgently need a place to work, especially financially. If I don't handle it well, it will be very troublesome in the later stage."
The two went directly to the elevator and reached the eighth floor, where someone was already waiting.
This man was about forty years old, and his short-sleeved shirt was tucked into his trousers, giving him an official air.
Director Zhao went up to shake hands with him: "Chief of the High-Tech Section, I've been waiting for a long time. I'm going to trouble you today." He took the initiative to introduce: "This is my brother Lu Dong, the owner of Lu's Catering Company in the university city, and the Burger King at the intersection of the center. Malatang is his industry."
Chief Gao shook hands with Lu Dong lightly, and said politely, "Boss Lu is young and promising."
Lu Dong said with a smile, "I'm sorry for the trouble, Chief Gao."
He couldn't get along with people from the Provincial University, and he could wait here because of the face of Director Zhao and the University City Management Committee.
The head of the high-tech section didn't talk nonsense: "I don't know which one Boss Lu is looking for?"
Lu Dong had seen it in Innovation Port and the business center on the east side before, and the location of the business center was also good, but the two buildings that were completed first were both designed like long corridors of public units and small offices on both sides, which did not meet his requirements. do not match.
In fact, it is more suitable for public units to work there.
In contrast, the Provincial University Innovation Port adopts the design of a big city office building. Each floor has several large bays and small bays. Individual floors are specially designed to be used by large companies to lease the entire floor.
Lu Dong took a fancy to office No. 8008 in the southwest corner.
Unlike the empty office in the future, this office has preliminary planning and construction.
The entrance porch is more than ten square meters, and there is a background wall directly opposite the door, which can be used as the front desk. A row of benches is placed on the north side, which can also be used as a temporary reception room.
There is a 15-square-meter reception room diagonally opposite, and further south is a large conference room. The door of the conference room is directly facing the office room, which is about 180 square meters, and it can be used for work with a desk.
There is a ten-square-meter storage room on the north side of the office. On the southernmost side, there are three offices built of brick-concrete structure, which can be used as the financial office and the leadership office.
Different from the pure rough housing, there is the most preliminary decoration here, the floor is covered with tiles, the walls have been scraped with putty, and there is also a layer of good-quality paint.
The head of the high-tech department accompanied Lu Dong around and said, "These were originally prepared for the high-tech companies that moved in. Not only are there telephone lines, but also network cables..."
His cell phone rang, he said sorry, and went to answer the call in the conference room next to him.
Officer Zhao said in a low voice: "Brother, isn't this place a little big? It's close to 300 square meters. There are not many people in your company who need permanent office work, right?"
Lu Dong simply explained: "The chain store is opening. I plan to enter Quannan within this year. There will definitely be more people. The company's office location cannot be like this, and it needs to be renovated. It is better to change the location next year or the next year if it cannot be crowded. Rent a slightly larger office."
I didn't mention one thing. Compared with the income of Lu's Catering Company, the rent here is very cheap, and there is preliminary decoration, so it doesn't need to spend a lot of effort on repairs. Generally speaking, it is more cost-effective.
Officer Zhao said: "I don't know much about business, brother, you can do as long as you see fit."
Lu Dong said: "When a chain is established, office workers are also indispensable."
Once there are more than three stores, the operation cannot be carried out in the form of stores, and the thinking of chain operation must be adopted.
If the first step in entering Quannan is successful, the stores under Lu's Catering will definitely blossom everywhere in Quannan, the capital city of the province.
At that time, the functional departments and business departments will need a certain amount of manpower.
The financial department and human resources department of the former are necessary, and it is even necessary to establish a legal department, and Lu Jianwu can help in this regard.
Needless to say, for the business department, each region must have a person in charge, and the responsibility must be assigned to someone. Other procurement, distribution, marketing, and quality control, etc., all require personnel coordination.
Of course, these are plans for the next two years.
Lu Dong's goal this year is to enter Quannan, and his goal in the next two years is to get out of Quannan and strive for large-scale development in surrounding counties and cities.
He has a clear plan for future development, which is to do business.
As for stocks and the like, it is not within the scope of consideration at all.
He had never touched stocks before, and didn't understand the stock market. At that time, he returned to the right track of life, and like many people who worked hard, he stayed away from risky things.
Not to mention that he doesn't understand the ebb and flow of the stock market, as far as the domestic stock market is concerned, who knows what will happen.
Develop step by step, take every step well, and lay a solid foundation.
Chief Gao quickly returned from the phone call. Although the building will not be officially leased until September, with Director Zhao present, this trivial matter is not a big deal at all.
The two parties quickly reached a lease agreement.
Because the business in the university town is relatively deserted, the rent is relatively cheap, 0.2 yuan per square meter per day, which is close to 300 square meters, and the annual rent is only 20,000 yuan.
Lu Dong wanted to sign a five-year contract at a time, but the provincial university was not stupid, and would only sign a two-year contract at most.
The development situation of the university town is becoming clearer and clearer, and the rent will inevitably rise sharply in two years.
At noon, Lu Dong invited Director Zhao to have dinner together.
"University officially expanded enrollment this year, and technical secondary schools are coming to an end." The two also discussed the development of the university town. Director Zhao revealed a piece of news: "Some secondary schools in Quannan and surrounding counties and cities will be merged and reorganized by the Education Department. Our leaders have been striving to get these newly established junior colleges to settle in our university town."
Lu Dong said: "This is a good thing. The number of schools and population in the university city will increase, and the development will be faster."
Officer Zhao said with a smile: "We also have competitors. Daocheng and Yancheng also want to win over these schools. Schools and students are huge consumers. I always feel that the education policy above is changing. The schools The market seems to be getting bigger and bigger.”
Lu Dong agreed: "University is a brand new industry."
With the expansion of university enrollment, the number of college students has increased sharply, and the surrounding businesses have benefited a lot.
After lunch, Officer Zhao bid farewell and left. Lu Dong received a call that the case between Yang Fugui and Ma Yunlai had come to an end.
